When you say that you speak as if the Republican party is some monolithic creature... but the Republican party consists of individuals, most of whom are actively fighting to preserve the freedoms and liberty of all Americans.
Are there Democrat lite swamp critters within our ranks? Yes, there are. But we are NOT All traitors.

Pretty sure 'nhtagmember' is talking about those elected Republicans that serve in Washington, DC, those whose allegiance is to the RNC, and NOT to you & me! Sure, there are huge numbers of Republicans that are 'actively fighting to preserve the freedoms and liberty of all Americans' all across this country, but unfortunately those that, by the virtue of their position, could truly make a difference when & where it matters most, simply do not! It is an unfortunate reality that, at a national level, the Republican Party is a party of broken promises any more, plain and simple. The Republican Party seems primarily focused on doing what's good for the party...NOT what's good for 'We the People'!

I'm sure I'm not alone, but I do not consider myself a 'Republican', and haven't for more than a decade. Though I do vote for Republicans, I consider myself a 'Constitutional Conservative' and I'm sure there are a great many Republicans that consider themselves the same. My allegiance is to the United States Constitution and not to any party, especially one that time and again, fails to do what they were elected to do!

It's a great today and I am stoked.

Why?

Because the evil, depraved ghouls currently running things are losing badly and their desperation is now so apparent that they are not even trying to disguise their attempts to retain power with even a thin veneer of equal protection and due process.

They are scared shitless. They are losing and they know it.

God bless Donald J. Trump.

The Republican party left me a long time ago - I am a registered independent

I will not EVER give money to anyone that has either a D or an R after their name. They steal enough from me as it is, I'm not going to fund my enemy.

I have not been following Trump's trial.

Did the judge really say each jury member could find Trump guilty of one of three actions and the jury didn't have to agree on which of the three actions or combination of actions he was guilty of?

Was that in relation to a specific charge of the 34 charges or some combination of those charges?

Did the jury deliberate each of the charges, or did they just decide he was guilty of "something" and call it a day?

Yep, that's pretty much what the jury "instructions" were, quite pitiful.

Google “The Disgraced Act”

If Trump goes to prison, they want to pull his Secret Service detail. They want to kill him.

Yes. The ambiguous "crime" is the offense the 34 charges were made in furtherance of, that made the 34 charges felonies instead of misdemeanors with the statute of limitations already expired.

The prosecution alleged that "election interference" by hiding the true nature of the payments was a crime. Specially what statute was violated was never specifically stated, nor was Trump charged and certainly not convicted of it.

The judge also refused to let a defense expert witness testify that there was no federal election law violation.

Here is an analogy:

Possession of an illegal handgun is a crime. In many jurisdictions, possession of an illegal handgun during the commission of other crime is a higher charge. Imagine charging a defendent with the higher crime of possession of an illegal handgun during the commission of another crime (say armed robbery, rape, or murder) but not charging the other crime or specifically stating which it was.

It would seem she convinced those at SIG that she's NOT Anti-gun and on our side!

This is going to be epic!

Can you think of any two people that the Left loathes more right now?

Would not be surprised if they try to shut this down.

Guy Fawkes Day (Election Day too) might just take on a whole new meaning in the USA.

First of many donations done. I contributed pretty heavily to him in 2016 and 2020. I might end up exceeding that this election.

Immediately, after the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor, while the Japanese were celebrating their great victory, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto said to them:

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

Yesterday was the Democrats great victory. From here on, they face a terrible resolve.

For the most part, we knew this was coming. We hoped for a hung jury but it didn't happen. Of course knowing all the crap Judge Corruption did, I would not have been surprised IF he would have replaced any jurors holding out with an alternate (no that is not suppose to happen in a trial but a lot of crap that isn't suppose to happen in a trial did. Also the alternates were still being held in the courthouse, every other time they are dismissed when the jury goes back for deliberations). So the Dims have hurt our country, destroyed our standing and our brand worldwide. Hey, they started it with the Afghan Fuck Up and continued it through yesterday. I watched Gutfeld last night and Kevin O'Leary and Tyrus had some excellent points. Tyrus said we got punched in the mouth by this but we don't riot and destroy things because we work and we build this country. All this did was make me look forward to standing in line to vote November 5th so, God willing, President Trump can start draining that fucking swamp, starting with the DOJ, Pentagon (aka Penisgon), and State Department. I am off to donate to President Trump.


UPDATED: Just saw this video by Mark Dice which brings up the Judge being able to replace a hold out juror:

Some suggest Biden should step in and pardon Trump. The legality of that aside, this is scary. FJB would come across as decent (a recent narrative they're pushing) but a hollow gesture knowing other kangaroo courts are in the wings waiting to do their dirty work.

quote:

Some suggest Biden should step in and pardon Trump.

In United States v. Wilson (1833), the U.S. Supreme Court held that a pardon can be rejected by the intended recipient and must be affirmatively accepted to be officially recognized by the courts.

Even when the website crashed for awhile, the Trump campaign raised an astounding 35 million dollars last night before midnight. 30% from first time donors.

"Some suggest Biden should step in and pardon Trump"

^^^^ The President can pardon a crime against the US (a federal crime), not a crime against a state.
